The Birth of Sword God-Chapter 279 - 246: Chu Huaixu in Holy Body State
In the Disciple Courtyard, Han Shuangjiang and Xu Ziqing followed behind Chu Huaixu.
The crowd parted to the sides, and as Chu Huaixu walked forward, people stood off to either side.
All the Outer Sect Disciples watched him, making way for him to pass.
Everyone scrutinized this handsome and elegant Profound Yellow Leader. Seeing him return from rushing down the mountain to aid others, it was just as Jiang Chang and the others had said—he had slain three Evil Cultivators way above his own Realm, yet returned completely unharmed.
He wasn't even the slightest bit disheveled, not even his robe's corner dirty.
"Chu Leader!"
"Chu Leader!"
The crowd all greeted him.
Those who called him Junior Brother Chu had clearly become far fewer.
Now that Chu Huaixu had entered the Third Realm, becoming a True Disciple was only a matter of time.
In the future, even the Senior Brothers and Sisters of the Inner Sect would have to call him Direct Disciple Chu.
How could Outer Sect disciples still dare address him as Junior Brother?
Chu Huaixu could easily guess that Jiang Chang and the others must have spread word of his feats.
He understood this, too.
After all, right after the East and West Continent Competition, he went to handle matters in the Origin Spirit Realm, and after returning he'd been in seclusion the whole time, with nearly no news of him in the Outer Sect.
Now, the first thing he did upon emerging was kill above his Realm—certainly quite shocking.
Han Shuangjiang and Xu Ziqing followed behind him, both feeling this spectacle was somewhat overwhelming.
After a simple mission debrief in the Disciple Courtyard, the three received a decent amount of Sect Contribution Points.
Afterwards, they didn't linger long in the courtyard.
Xiang Yan and others hoped that through ten further rescue missions, Chu Huaixu's prestige among his peers would continue to rise.
But unexpectedly, with just a single mission out of the mountain, the effects were already remarkable.
For the next half month, whenever Chu Huaixu and the others' Communication Talismans lit up, they immediately rushed down the mountain.
As the number of rescue missions increased, his accumulated reputation among the Outer Sect also soared.
This was different from the fame he got as Profound Yellow Leader.
After all, back then, no matter how strong he was, he was just in the First Realm.
But now, the power he demonstrated had already become something almost every Outer Sect disciple could only look up to.
In this period, Chu Huaixu and the others completed a total of five rescue missions.
As the sun set, the three had just finished their meal when the sky started to drizzle.
Just as they were preparing to return to their rooms, their Communication Talisman suddenly lit up again.
"Black light!" Xu Ziqing couldn't help but cry out.
Chu Huaixu and Han Shuangjiang also exchanged a glance.
Black light meant the situation was extremely urgent and highly dangerous.
They needed to report to the Outer Sect Disciple Courtyard, get reinforcements, and then go to the rescue.
The three immediately got up, not daring to delay for a moment.
Because if they wasted any time, it could cost their fellow disciples their lives!
On the way down the mountain, Chu Huaixu casually pulled over an Outer Sect disciple and said, "Senior Sister, please deliver this Communication Talisman to the Disciple Courtyard as soon as possible—it's urgent!"
The Communication Talisman could also be used for positioning, so it needed to be brought as well.
Anyway, the three of them were moving together, and Han Shuangjiang and Xu Ziqing still had talismans on them.
The Outer Sect Senior Sister was startled at first, but when she realized it was actually Chu Huaixu, she immediately complied, heading to the Disciple Courtyard at top speed.
The three Divine Steeds began galloping down the mountain.
The Communication Talisman radiating black light made Chu Huaixu's expression all the more serious.
He didn't forget to remind, "There's likely to be a fierce battle ahead. The two of you be careful, and don't stray too far from me."
"Alright," Han Shuangjiang and Xu Ziqing replied.
In truth, Chu Huaixu wasn't particularly worried about Big Ice Cube.
Her overall strength was now formidable enough that she could kill across Realms—ordinary Third Realm Great Perfection opponents were absolutely no match for her.
He was mainly worried about Xiaoxu.
Xu Ziqing was currently just in the Second Realm, and didn't even have his Bronze Sword on him; it was back on Hidden Spirit Mountain.
He might be able to run rampant in the Second Realm, but if he encountered a Third Realm expert, he'd just have to hope his Physique from Body Refining would be sturdy enough to survive the blows.
Beyond that, Dead Fox had quietly put away the Profound Yellow Leader's waist token.
"Within my power, it's just my [skin]—I'll wear it for the swag."
"Outside my power? If things get too dangerous, only an idiot would wear it—you're just begging to get focused down."
After all, when he played games, he'd always target the showiest [skin] on the enemy team first!
When they reached the scene, however, they found that the situation wasn't as dire as they'd imagined.
"A Great Cultivator?" Chu Huaixu was slightly surprised.
A Sword Cultivator, bearing an Inner Sect disciple's waist token, was floating in midair casting spells.
There was even an Evil Cultivation Altar here, and even bigger than last time. Furthermore, it housed several Fourth Realm Evil Cultivators, and one floating Fifth Realm Evil Cultivator too!
Chu Huaixu deliberated briefly and felt that his previous ideas were probably right.
"The higher-ups in the Daoist Sect must have realized the situation was unusual."
"So, when Outer Sect Stewards lead teams down the mountain for big missions, they arrange for an Inner Sect Great Cultivator to secretly follow, hoping to fish out something," he thought to himself.
He figured this Inner Sect Sword Cultivator hadn't just arrived on the scene.
If he had only just gotten there, the battle would be far more intense right now.
With several Fourth Realms and a Fifth Realm evil cultivator on the other side, with only an Outer Sect Steward's team, they'd have been wiped out by now! They couldn't possibly have held their own!
Even more coincidentally, the team leader turned out to be an old acquaintance—Niu Yuanshan.
Chu Huaixu guessed Old Niu saw that the enemy was so strong and immediately sent out the Communication Talisman.
Only after that did he realize there was also a Great Cultivator on their side.
But in fact, since the enemy still had four Fourth Realm Evil Cultivators, the stalemate continued.
Chu Huaixu rushed into the fight, thinking to himself:
"Junior Martial Uncle, Junior Martial Uncle, looks like the Black Moon Sect Leader isn't taking you seriously at all!"
One must know, Jiang Zhi had made a grand vow to go down the mountain to eliminate evil for sixty years.
This peerless slaughterer had already spent nearly fifty years on this crusade.
If, as before, only small fry came, then he naturally wouldn't be disturbed.
But now that even a Fifth Realm Evil Cultivator had dared step into Daoist Sect territory, that would be enough to draw Jiang Zhi's murderous intent!
Unless something unexpected happened, Jiang Zhi would most likely descend from the mountain himself and begin a purge!
"This Black Moon Sect really is arrogant!"
"Your so-called Sect Leader had better truly be Ninth Realm."
"Otherwise, you won't be able to withstand Jiang Zhi's wrath," Chu Huaixu thought.
And with so many elite-level "Wild Monsters" present, Chu Huaixu was of course going to pick off the fattest ones!
He drew his Sword Scabbard, and immediately rushed at a Fourth Realm Evil Cultivator.
Amusingly, among the Daoist Sect people on site, besides the floating Great Cultivator, the strongest was team leader Niu Yuanshan.
At that moment, he was locked in a desperate duel with a Fourth Realm Evil Cultivator, barely holding on, and badly injured.
The other three Fourth Realm Evil Cultivators were working together with the Fifth Realm Evil Cultivator to battle the Daoist Sect's Great Cultivator.
Old Niu saw that it was Chu Huaixu who'd come to help and was momentarily stunned.
This youth whom he'd once regarded as a son or nephew was now a traitor to the Moon Country organization.
But ironically, this very traitor rushed over at full speed while shouting, "Steward Niu! I'm here to help you!"
He was only in the Third Realm—even had just entered it and wasn't even at First Heaven yet.
But seeing Niu Yuanshan locked in a bitter fight against a Fourth Realm Second Heaven Evil Cultivator, he paid no heed to his own safety and leapt in to help.
Even more outrageous, Niu Yuanshan's first reaction was—Don't mind me! It's too dangerous here!
Just as always, his first reflex was to care about this kid: afraid he'd get hurt, afraid he'd risk himself.
I must be crazy—he's a traitor to the organization, he's not Huo Dingyi anymore!
Yet Chu Huaixu moved too fast.
So fast that Niu Yuanshan didn't have time to think.
This youth in Black Robes, a golden mark appeared between his brows, and his eyes, originally deep and dark, now blazed with golden fire!
As he ran, twin golden flames trailed long steaming ribbons behind him in the air.
"Just entered the Third Realm? Courting death!" shouted the Fourth Realm Evil Cultivator.
"Oh, really?" Chu Huaixu replied blandly.
His speed suddenly increased again!
In just an instant, he flashed to the Evil Cultivator's side.
A flicker of shock and doubt flashed in the opponent's eyes.
Who the hell is this guy! This can't be the speed of the Third Realm!
"Boom—!"
In his Holy Body State, Chu Huaixu threw out a punch with no technique at all—just pure brute force.
Niu Yuanshan was stunned on the spot.
Because just this one simple punch forced the Evil Cultivator back ten feet.
